Abstract

A disconnector for a rifle wherein the disconnector is formed with a hook-under portion which is provided with a sharp trigger body contact ridge which contacts on a center line (rifle longitudinal axis) of the underside of a portion of the trigger body when the disconnector is in a neutral position during the first stage of a two stage trigger pull.

Description

This application is a Continuation-In-Part of application Ser. No. 12/228,103 filed Aug. 11, 2008 now abandoned and claims the benefit of the Provisional Patent Application Ser. No. 60/964,021 filed Aug. 9, 2007.
BACKGROUND
1. Field
The technical field of the present invention resides in a unique trigger disconnector structure and its manufacture for firearms and in particular for the AR15-T400 rifle.
2. Prior Art
The current various trigger assemblies on the market such as described in U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,881,485; 6,131,324; 5,501,134; 4,937,964; and 4,937,964 the disclosures of which are hereby incorporated herein by reference in their entireties, do not incorporate a center line trigger pull which allows the disconnector to hook under the trigger body and bear on a lateral, centered pivot line on the trigger body. The present structure allows for more accurate machining of the disconnector and a cleaner, lighter and crisper trigger pull in that it allows the shooter to feel the first and second stages of the trigger pull without any drag or roughness.
SUMMARY
The present disconnector works from the bottom of the trigger body with a hook under portion laterally centered with the trigger body and with a substantially line pivot fulcrum contacting the trigger body. This design allows the disconnector to work freely on the very accurately ground trigger body surface giving a center line trigger pull with less torquing of the trigger pivot giving much less drag and imbalance to the firing process.

 DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Referring to FIG. 1, an AR15 rifle is shown with side wall portions of the breech 12 housing broken away and showing (within the dotted line) the present trigger-disconnector-safety assembly 13 with certain parts thereof numbered as in the aforesaid FIGS. 9, 10 and 11 of said U.S. Pat. No. 5,501,134.
The present disconnector is a unique improvement over the structures of the prior art as shown for example in present FIGS. 2, 2A and 2B, and the function and need for a disconnector is described in detail in U.S. Pat. No. 5,501,134 at Col. 2, lines 11 thru 67, Col. 3, lines 1 thru 33, Col. 5, lines 7-67, and Col. 6 lines 1-55. Concisely stated, disconnectors allow an experienced shooter to feel a two stage pull of the trigger wherein in the first stage of the finger pull the shooter can readily feel the trigger move but then stop against a disconnector spring resistance, but in the second stage of the finger pull the shooter in overcoming the spring resistance, can barely—if at all—feel motion of the trigger until firing occurs. Greatly improved shooting accuracy is thus achieved.
Referring to FIGS. 3-9 the present disconnector 14 in a most preferred embodiment comprises a cam portion 16 and a hook under portion 17 which is machined to provide a short lateral ridge 18 which terminates in an upper contact surface 19 which preferably is substantially a line surface of from about 0.0001″ to about 0.005″ in width 23 and from about 0.005″ to about 3/16″ in length 24, most preferably from about 0.01″ to about ⅛″ in length.
Disconnector 14 is pivotally mounted on trigger body 35 by pin 54 and compression spring 37 has one end mounted in pocket 49 in the disconnector and the other end bearing against trigger body 35. As more clearly seen in FIGS. 3A and 6, trigger body 35 preferably but not necessarily is formed with a raised slave portion 50 which can be readily machined ground to precisely adjust the neutral position of cam portion 16 without trying to dimension the whole under cut surface 51 of the trigger body 35.
In a preferred embodiment the invention comprises a firearm trigger assembly having a receiver housing 15A, a firing pin hammer 30 pivotally mounted in the housing and having a hook 31 formed with a trigger engagement surface 32, a trigger 20 having a body 35 pivotally mounted in the housing and having a hook 21 formed with a hammer engagement surface 22 and having an under cut surface 51, a disconnector 14 pivotally mounted on the trigger body 35 and having an upper cam portion 16, a lower hook-under portion 17 and an intermediate connector portion 56 forming a trigger body receiving gap 52, the disconnector having a center line 57 substantially aligned with a longitudinal axis of the firearm, the hook-under portion 17 being formed with a laterally extending ridge 18 on its upper surface, the ridge having an upper contact surface 19 of a width of from about 0.0001″ to about 0.05″ and a length of from about 0.01″ to about ⅛″, and spring means urging the disconnector in a pivotal motion to move cam portion 16 toward said hook 21 and to engage upper contact surface 19 with the under surface 51 of the trigger body 35, wherein at least a portion of the contact surface 19 is positioned on the center line.
In manufacturing the present Hook0Under Trigger Assembly two investment castings are used. The castings material is 8620 steel and the heat treatment required is a case hardened 50-55 with a core depth of 0.010″-0.015″. Referring to FIG. 3, this view shows the trigger with a large pin hole 46 machined to 0.156″ and a disconnector pin hole 53 drilled and reamed to 0.094″. The under cut surface 51 on the bottom of the trigger is 0.110″ from the bottom of the disconnector slot. FIG. 4 shows the 0.155″ spring pocket 49 in the disconnector to the depth of 0.275″ and the 0.094″ pin 54 braded in place. The disconnector working surface (slave portion, if used) 50 on the bottom of the trigger body 35 is ground to 0.110″+0.001″-0.001″. The angle on the disconnector hook is a clean square ground surface with a tolerance of 0.001″.
Assembly Procedure
The present Trigger Assembly is placed in the AR15 receiver by breaking open the receiver by pressing the lower receiver locking pin and swinging the barrel assembly up. Then remove both the hammer and the trigger pins from the side of the receiver. Remove hammer and trigger from the receiver. The AR15-T400 comes completely assembled. Replace the old hammer and trigger with the AR15-T400 set by dropping the trigger in place and inserting the trigger pin. Then place the hammer in the receiver and insert the hammer pin. Lower barrel assembly and lock in place with lower receiver locking pins. The AR15-T400 will now function.
The invention has been described in detail with particular reference to preferred embodiments thereof, but it will be understood that variations and modifications will be effected within the spirit and scope of the invention.
